Jackie Robinson Middle School

Synopsis

............................................................................................................................................

Jackie Robinson Middle School is part of the New Haven Public School District in New Haven, Connecticut. While it is located in the proximity of Fair Haven Neighborhood Schools, New Haven Public Schools is a separate school district. When Integrated Systems & Services was contacted to provide a Media Retrieval solution at Jackie Robinson, they immediately looked to Phoenix, which is also installed at two schools within the neighboring Fair Haven Collaborative. Much like the installations at Fair Haven Neighborhood Schools and Silas Deane Middle School, the installation at Jackie Robinson is on a smaller scale with only a Head End and the Phoenix Server PC. Absent are the Television Managers that are placed within the rooms at most schools. Instead, the end-users manually tune their display devices and control of the Head End sources is accomplished with the Phoenix32 web client. This is a perfect solution for smaller school districts that need an inexpensive and reliable solution for media management. While Phoenix can drive hundreds (or thousands) of plasma displays, projectors, and televisions, it can also be utilized in less demanding environments. Also, installation of Phoenix builds a foundation upon which the district can grow with virtually unlimited expandability as the needs of the faculty and students continue to grow.

Realm Control Corp. again extends thanks to George Manolakis of Integrated Systems & Services for choosing Phoenix as the media management solution at Jackie Robinson Middle School.
